Guest bug Posted November 1, 2001 Share Posted November 1, 2001 Canada is a cool place with cool people. it's really great and like TT boy said, beat the US's ass when the US tried to invade. BUT... economically, canada are just leaches of US's economy. all canadian cities and major industrial centers are very close to the US border for a reason. if the US put an embargo and had trade sanctions against canada, they would all have to do farming to survive. i'm in no way saying one country is better than the other, just dropping some knowledge.

Weather is the biggest factor. And the border works both ways. I take it you americans like building things with wood? How about making food with wheat? Half of the west coast of the states is powered by canada, and a lot of the northeast is as well. Canada has more oil than Saudi Arabia, its just still in the ground. Americas number 1 trading partner is Canada, and vise versa. 87% of our exports go down south, while 29% of your exports come up here. We'd be harder hit than you but you'd definitely feel it as well. ..and Babe Ruth hit his first professional home-run while playing in canada for a canadian baseball team. In Toronto as a matter of fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest --zeSto-- Posted November 1, 2001 Share Posted November 1, 2001 War is Declared!...Canada rolls out their Tank. The truth of the war issue... Canada won WW1 Helped a bunch in WW2 Was in Vietnam before the US but left before it was too late. Fought in Korea. and the clincher... Burned down Washington! Yes... In the War of 1812, American troops attacked and burn down the goverment buidling at York (now Toronto). So a bunch of crazy canucks went down and torched the US parliment. That's the history they dont teach you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CATS Posted November 1, 2001 Share Posted November 1, 2001 Real Questions... I have a couple questions. How does your medical services work, I was told they are provided free by the Gov't. Hockey is great, Fan of the premier team Montreal Canadiens, And a close second Toronto Maple Leafs, Miss the Nordiques. I also wanted to know how your cost of living is reflected upon americas. I.E. Minumum wage is 6.25- Gallon of milk is 3.99, Ciggarettes are 4.80. I have only met a few canucks, or I'll just say friends, even though they say canuck, and they really are not into the same things, Like graff. Any info would help, I hope to make it to B.C., Montreal, Toronto some day just to enjoy. Canada's states are called Provinces for the pupil who hasn't had any geography classes.

CATS Posted November 2, 2001 Share Posted November 2, 2001 I wasnt meaning literally, I was trying to get an idea of how much you have to work for things. Like I can buy two packs of smokes and a gatorade with an hours wage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest --zeSto-- Posted November 2, 2001 Share Posted November 2, 2001 as for money.. It works out to be almost the same cost for most purchases. If $20usd = $30cdn and some item costs 20$ in the states, it costs $30 here, then it all woks out to be about the same. Things may be a touch more expensive here (gas, smokes etc.) but that's all caouse of the tax man. But one thing that's way cheaper here is Segram's Crown Royal. I've seen bottles that cost $20usd ($30cdn) in Canada for sale in the states at $60usd ($120cdn). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisPantalonesEstaEnfuega Posted November 2, 2001 Share Posted November 2, 2001 I have no beef with Canada.

Guest professor poopatronic Posted November 2, 2001 Share Posted November 2, 2001 i'm an "undercover" canadian. i'm a canadian citizen and my family is canadian, but i've grown up all over the world and currently live in the US. i wouldn't trade my citizenship for anything. it's not as much that i'm proud to be a canadian (which i am) as it is i'm proud not to be an american. anyways, i'm really hoping i can make it back up there soon, canada has some of the coolest people ive ever met.

Like 60s and 70s? nope... In Toronto last summer it went over 100'. I had to find a metric converter to tell you that. If I said it went over 40 you'd think it was freezing. yeah for metric temperature. 0 degrees is freezing 100 is boiling 15 is a crisp afternoon 30 is a hot day in the summer -20 is blistering in the winter.

bigpoppa.k Posted November 2, 2001 Share Posted November 2, 2001 ooooh maaaaaan.. you want to get into the money issue.. its AAAAAAAAAll fucked up in the city.. its pretty tricky to formulate but in comparison its all relative. "pretty much". we do have a basic country wide health care plan. The average run of the mill family doctor gets a cool $100 from the government for every patient he sees, whether it be a 5 minute visit or a 6 hour physical. I don't know about other provinces, but i know that in ontario, things like doctors notes, insurance forms and the like we do have to pay for. If you need to go to the hospital for stitches or what not, yeah its free. Now for the money... I don't know what it closed at today, but yesterday, our dollar closed at 62 cents. That would be for every one of our dollars, we would get 62 cents U.S. The exchange rate kills us. I pay $4 for cigarettes, but you can pay up to $7 in some provinces because its the provinces that regulate the taxes. We've got 2 sets of taxes, P.S.T and G.S.T. Provincial sales tax, and the all mighty fuck you up the ass Goods and Services Tax. All tolled, pretty much everything we buy has 15% tax. And while i'm on taxes i guess i should point out that on average, canadians pay 22% more taxes off the top than americans, not including the 15% on everything else. Minimum wage in ontario is $6.95. 3 liters of milk is $3.99 (i don't have my tables with me so i can't figure the gallon to liter ratio). In toronto anyway, if you're making 35 grand a year, you can barely keep your head above water. You're still living pretty ghetto on that because pretty much half is taken for taxes. Now you need to eat. thats another 15% taxes. So i guess what it boils down to is that the canadian goverment has litterally been fucking us up the ass for years, but still complains it has no money for education. A lt of countries have that problem though. I guess the whole point of this is that if americans want to come to canada and blow some cash, you'd actually be saving money. For us to go down there and blow some cash, we'd get fucked by the exchange rate. Thats why I haven't taken more trips down there. I'd be down there every fuckin weekend practically if it wasn't for this crap. If I wanted to come down there and buy some paint at $3 a can, i'd actually be paying more for it when you figure it. Our money is worthless, and it resembles Monopoly money too.. go figure. At one time though in the late 60's, I think, our money and our standard of living was higher than the states. What the hell happenned is a completely different story. So the moral of the story boys and girls is that everybody gets fucked by their respective governments, it's just how much is the kicker. There's more where this came from if you're fiending for info. T.T knows where its at.. hehe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
